AUGUSTA, GA, Jan. IA special
from Selma, Ala, says The burning Of
TIsdale IL Ramsey's large livery and sales
stables, which occurred here between IL
and II O'Clock this morning, was one OF
the most disastrous and horrible fires
ever known in this city. 1t was doubtless
incendiary. Owing 10 the nay in the
lofts the f1remen's efforts were fruit
less. The cremation of eighteen horses
and mules was most sickening sight
AS the flames struck the beasts they
would plunge wildly with suffering, utter
horrible groanings, and then fall down.
The sounds made by the horses were
piteous and heartrending, and many per-
sons tainted. The loss is SIG, 900 and the
insurance 1900.
